Hifi Engineering:Who We Are Market leader in turn-key distributedfiber optic sensing (DFOS) solutions Pipeline monitoring focus; deployed orunder deployment on over 2,000 km In-house development of custommachine learning algorithms tailored forpipeline leak detection Creators of the highest-fidelity DFOSsystem available today - Hifi HDS integrating acoustic, temperature &strain/vibration sensing in one cable2
Hifi Engineering:What We Do Hifi HDS provides real-time, 100%asset coverage, continuously sensingevery centimeter of pipelineAcoustic Magnitude Leak dynamics are highly variable &may present distinct signatures via: Acoustics of escaping flow Strain/vibration of pipeStrain MagnitudeAcoustic Spectral Density Localized temperature changes Event data verified and differentiatedto determine course of action (examplecontrol room alarm shown at right) Evolution of leak signature recognitionvia machine learning algorithms iscritical to avoiding false alarmsOperationsControlRoom
Hifi & EUREKA:Optimization for Hydrogen Pipeline Monitoring Limited efforts to optimize DFOS for leak detection in H2 transport EUREKA offers a unique opportunity to bridge this gap and support safe and efficientpipeline operations as hydrogen infrastructure grows into our cities and homes HDS represents an ideal technology platform for these efforts: Highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for sensing low-energy eventsIntegrated capability to detect broad range of energy signaturesSuccessful in capturing simulated leaks on buried pipe below 15 psi (0.1 MPa), with100% detection & zero false positives Joint project envisions testing of Hifi HDS in H2 pipeline to support customization ofmachine learning algorithms optimized for hydrogen leak detection
